Kautilya's Arthashastra 3.2.32

3.2.32

kāmakaraṇīyam api strīdhanaṃ vindamānā putrasaṃsthaṃ kuryāt //

If a woman attempts to take possession of her own property under the plea of maintaining her sons, she shall be made to endow it in their name. If a woman has many male children, then she shall conserve her own property in the same condition as she had received from her husband. Even that property which has been given her with full powers of enjoyment and disposal she shall endow in the name of her sons.
